12"er's were the highest I've ridden and they felt pretty good. Some bikes just look better with apes but for the guys that say they handle better [sm=bs.gif] Have you ever seen a racer with apes? [sm=noooo.gif]
I only have a set of mini-apes on the RKC, but I love them. Great hand position for me. Just don't like the hand position for the lower bars. And my control is just fine, thank you. I didn't do this for looks, but comfort. As soon as I sat on the bike and grabbed the bars, it was more comfortable than the other versions of bars I've had on rides. At my age, I'm all about comfort.
